What to expect from online therapy
Online counseling is structured similarly to in-person therapy, with time set aside for discussion, reflection, and goal-setting. You’ll need a private space, a stable internet connection, and a device with video or audio capability. Your therapist will help you understand what to expect and answer any questions before your first session.
